That's right. Slightly Stoopid has put their live album "Acoustic Roots: Live and Direct" up on bandcamp for a free download. I'm not a fan of everything these guys have done but they have some "good stuff" and this album is certainly included in said"stuff". Real chill....bruh.
I think it's only available TODAY so go get it before it's too late!
In my opinion, this is the way music is supposed to be created. Musicians getting together, each contributing their own piece. Can't wait for the BLAKROC album to drop November 27th.
BLAKROC Is The Black Keys collaberation with: Mof Def, Raekwon, Q-Tip, ODB, RZA, Jim Jones,Nicole Wray, Ludacris, NOE, Pharoahe Monch, and Billy Danze.
Watch the Flaming Lipsperform a new song off their upcoming album Embryonic . The album will be out on October 13th and if the rest of it sounds like this song, I CAN'T WAIT. Actually, you can stream the whole album right now until Monday on ColbertNation.com. Give it a listen!
Ohhhhhhh Yeeeeaaaaaah it's MACHO MONDAY!!!!!! In honor of the recent release of The Macho Man Randy Savage's DVD "Macho Madness: The Randy Savage Ultimate Collection" I thought I would write a lil some some about the Macho King himself. Despite being an Intercontinental Champion, a two time WWF champion, a King of the Ring winner, and a four time WCW champion, as well as one of the most intense wrestlers of all time, The Macho Man also has a RAP ALBUM under his belt (no pun intended...okay it was intended). Yes, that's right, back in 2003 The Macho Man released a rap album (hilariously) titled "Be A Man" (which is also a Hulk Hogan diss track on the album). Nearly the entire album is dedicated to kicking ass, wrestling, rapping, being a man, and kicking more ass. Everyone needs to hear this album...well at least a song or two , but before you do you must see the Awesome, Macho Madness, that is Randy Savage.
I leave you firstly with a few fine clips of the man and secondly a couple of his songs as well. Enjoy! OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH YEAAAAAAAAAAAHH
"After the Flaming Lips' Steven Drozd failed to sell his Oklahoma house last year, the band turned the empty home into a temporary recording studio. "We're capturing more immediate kinds of rock sounds there," says frontman Wayne Coyne. "It's different than the computer-generated beats of the last couple of records." The group is re-teaming with longtime producer Dave Fridmann for its 12th LP — and has already written enough material for a double album, which Coyne describes as "Plastic Ono-era John Lennon mixed with Bitches Brew-era Miles Davis."
I can't wait to hear this. Their last 3 albums have been fantastic (Yoshimi Battles The Pink Robots ranks up among the very top of my favorite albums) and most of their older albums are pretty solid as well (although some of their early work is a little rough) Definitely looking forward to this record.
This is a place for all things "entertainment", which is essentially all things me. Music, art, movies, TV, new technologies, "everything" and (maybe) anything involved with entertainment. I put the words "entertainment" and "everything" in parenthesis for the fact that firstly some things I may find entertaining other people may not and secondly there's no way I can really cover everything out there.
Some of my entries may seem completely random but I feel as though spontaneity and randomness should be a part of life. Nonetheless, I hope this brings you some kind of enjoyment, for that's the real reason behind this whole thing.
The exact origin of the name "Danny b Funk" is unknown but it was developed years ago due to my funky bass playing and all around "funky" nature (whatever that means).
My outlook and attitude towards life, as well as inspirations are influenced greatly by:
1960's hippie culture, sounds, noise and beats, Funk, the Grateful Dead, cartoons, Les Claypool, comic books, the 1971 film Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory, professional wrestling, "the groove", Living in the country, rhymes, The Twilight Zone Dr. Seuss,improvisation, video games, standup and improv comedy, old school hip hop, DJs, Shel Silverstein, Drum Machines, Vinyl Discs, boat shoes, electricity, mythology, Eastern religion and philosophy, acoustic instruments, Mick Foley, jazz, awkwardness, music as a whole, antics, shenanigans and tomfoolery.
